West Ham boss David Moyes reacts to Chelsea’s pursuit of Declan Rice

David Moyes has dismissed the speculation surrounding Chelsea target Declan Rice.

The England international has been linked with move to Chelsea, and Manchester United are equally reportedly keen to sign the midfielder.

But Rice himself has ruled out any move to the Old Trafford despite the interest of the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer side.

But when Moyes was asked about interest in Declan Rice, he said: “We have had no contact regarding Declan. He is doing great for us. He is a big leader. He is turning out to be a really good player and also a really good boy as well to have around the club.”

He added: “We would like to strengthen if we can but the most important thing is we win the games. If we think there are players out there who can help us get wins then we are interested. Who knows.”
